TYRES
Only fit tyres approved by BETAMOTOR.
Unsuitable tyres can adversely affect the road holding of the vehicle.
• To protect your safety, immediately replace any damaged tyres.
• Slick tyres adversely affect the road holding of the vehicle, especially on wet roads
and in off-road riding.
• Insufficient pressure results in abnormal wear and overheating of the tyres.
• The front and rear tyres must have the same tread design.
• Always measure the inflating pressures when the tyres are cold.
• Keep the tyre pressures within the prescribed range.
CHAIN
Checking the drive chain periodically to ensure longer chain life. Always keep it
lubricated and clean of deposited dirt.
Take special care in preventing the lubricant from coming into contact with the rear
tyre or brake disc, otherwise the tyre grip and the action of the brake would be
greatly reduced, making it very difficult to control the vehicle.
